If you have ever come out to one of our station remotes, you know we have a special place in our heart for the game of Plinko! On Friday, "The Price Is Right" celebrates the game's 30th anniversary with an all-Plinko episode! And even though Bob Barker used to say to the winners who got the plinko chip in the winning spot to do it the same way to win again, we at Star have found that's not always true on the Star 102.5 Plinko board! Current host Drew Carey says “I would drop the chip down the center every time,” though he admits that doesn’t make it easy. “Bowling would be easy if people could remember with muscle memory exactly how they shoot every time they get the strike, but no one can remember.”
